Will Track Key change the game on the 1/4 against the GT?

So I just saw a vid of a BOSS vs a GT doing the 1/4 mile. Both were pretty even (GT had CAI, tune and exhaust). This is pretty impressive seeing as the Boss was 100% stock and on the regular key. When the track key comes out in a few months, do you guys anticipate a big diff in 1/4 mile performance?

It's been said that the Red key tune gives the Boss more low-mid range torque. With that said, I do anticipate a slight gain on initial launch ( 1/8 mile ) traction pending. Again this is all speculation, which is really wearing on me with my car just sitting in the railyard and Trackkey getting pushed back now to late summer. Hopefully Ford can deliver the TrackKey. It was a selling point for some of us!

It IS supposed to have a true "launch control" in the program.......to go along with that small torque bump. That might be the single biggest difference at the strip.

it would be a huge embarassment for Ford not to release trackkey now. I can't imagine them not doing it.

Carb is corrupt. Ford probably just hasn't paid enough in cash yet.

launch control is simply a two step.
